	Hello,

	I have to compute max thread id to write a job controller. I use a 64 
bits L4 microkernel and I have read that on 64 bits kernel, 32 bits are 
assigned to thread number (l4-x2.pdf, page 14). On 32 bits kernel, only 
18 bits are allowed.

	Thus, why L4_ThreadIdBits(kip) only returns 18 on a 64 bits system ?

	Regards,

	JKB
